To all whom t Be. it known that I, LORENZ FLIGK, aA1

citizen of the United States, residin at Providence, in the county of Provi ence and State of Rhode Islapd, have. invented an Improvement in Machines for Ornarmenting Fabrics, of 'which the following 'tion Vis top rovide a machine of thel general character above stated which shall be simplein construction and effective inoperation and wherein the association of, parts is such that ornaments of aliquider lastic nature'may be deposited uponv the fa ric -as it is beingY passed through the'machine.

The machine which forms the subject matterf of the present 'invention is adapted to j Q .which the ornamented abrici vpassed from f applyto a 'fabric' ornaments' or deposits of any characterof liquid or plastic materialV but the advantages of the invention are particularly Ymanifested Vin 'ai machine for aps plying deposits of phenol formaldehyde con'- l densation products upon the fabric.'

Within the stenciling cylinder for contain- 1 il rthe ornamentingmaterialaan Thel machine for supporting"'the o rat relationv for sustaining the machine parts. Associated with the main machine frame is the drying chamber which is separated therefrom by a wall 2 having a perfora. tion for the entrance of the ornamented fabric as will presently appear.

Mounted upon the main frame of the machine, as shown, upon the longitudinal parts 3`is the frame 4 constructed and arranged to support the parts of the machine more particularly associated with the ornamenting mechanism. Mounted at the lower portion of the main machine frame, as shown, is the shaft 5 which constitutes the main drive shaft, and mayitself be driven from a suitable source of power, as by means of the belt 6 which passes around the pulley 7 secured to the shaft 5. The various operative` parts of the machine may be conveniently driven from the shaft 5, but the invention is not necessarily restricted to the particular driving means indicated.

In accordance with the present invention the liquid or plastic material to be deposited on the cloth in the form of ornaments is delivered from the interior of a stenciling cylinder and placed upon the cloth, which is itself supported by a back grey of greater width than the fabric to be ornamented, and both the fabric and back grey are moved between the stenciling cylinder and the support to receivethe deposits of the ornamenting material upon the cloth. v*When the deposits of the ornamenting material have been made, the cloth and back grey are withdrawn from the printing point by means which engage the marginal portions of the back grey without touching the ornament ing material upon the cloth, and both are delivered to the heat treating chamber, as will be more fully described. y

Between the side frames 4, hereinbefore referred to, on which are supported the mechanism associated with the ornamenting devices, is the stenciling cylinder 8 havlng openings in its cylindrical wall through which the ornamenting material may e delivered to the cloth. In the present instance, the stenciling cylinder 8 has its opposite ends open, as indicated'in Fig. 5, and the cylinder itself is supported by the segment blocks 9, Fig. 4, which are secured to the machine frame 4. The segment blocks 9, two at each side of the machine, engage the end portions ,of the stenciling cylinder outside the stenciling surface. As shown, the stenciling cylinder 8 has the end portions 10 provided with gear teeth 11, and secured to the end portions 10 of the stenciling cylinder is a plate 12 between which and the end portions 10 of the stenciling cylinder are secured the edge portions of the cylindrical shell forming the stenciling surface of the cylinder. The cap pieces or rings 12 thussprocket chain 17 which may be driven from the driving shaft 5, as indicated in Fig. 1. Between the rubber roll 13 and the driving shaft 5 the sprocket chain 17 passes around the belt tightener 18 and over a guide 19,

the construction being such that any slackin the sprocket chain 17 may be taken u bythe belt tightener to thereby effect positive drive of the rubber roll 13. The construction thus far described is such that when the driving shaft 5 is rotated through the train of mechanism described and by the gearing connection between the rubber roll 13 and the stenciling cylinder, the latter will be rotated as indicated by the arrows in Fig. 4.

It is sometimes desirable to employ a rubber apron in addition to the rubber roll 13, between which parts and the stenciling cylinder the cloth on the back grey is fed. In the present instance the rubber apron 20 has a portion thereof passed about the rubber roll 13 and another portion passed about the guide roll 21 mounted on the main machine frame. Inasmuch as the ornamenting material within the cylinder may percolate through the openings in the cylindrical wall under certain conditions, as, for instance, when the machine is stopped for any purpose, it is desirable that the rubber apron 2O be carried about the stenciling cylinder an appreciable amount to cove-r the openings in the cylinder that underlie the ornamenting material which may be seeking egress through the openings in the cylinder. To

lll)

this end the present 'invention' provides means for deflecting the rubber apron 2O which, as shown, consists of a roll 22 extending between the side frames of the machine and having its upper surface above the upper surface of the rubber roll 13. Likewise a guide roll 23 is provided, the construction being such that the apron 2O passes under the guide roll 23 and over the guide roll 22, and the portion of the apron between the guide roll22 and the rubber roll 13 bears upon the extended surface of the stenciling cylinder in, advance of the printing point.

Within the stenciling cylinder is provided a receptacle for containing the ornamenting material and also a supply pipe or element for supplying the receptacle with material from time to time.-

Mounted at opposite sides of the machine 1,541,803'V Y l a" frame 4 are the brackets 24, one at each side of themachine, as indicated in Figs. 1,- 4 and 5.- The brackets 24 have an opening 25 `into which extends the swivel block 26 mounted on the machine frame. At each side of the block 26 .the bracket 24 has the adjusting screws 27 whereb the block as a whole may be adjusted orizontally to change the position ofthe receptacle wlthin the lstenciling c linder, as will presently appear. Each o the brackets 24 has an arm 28 extending tov the opposite side of the stenciling cylinder, as indicated inFigs. 1 and 4, and a set screw 29 on the machine frame'adjacent each of the arms 28 serves as a means of moving the assdciate bracket 24 in 'a vertical plane about lthe pivotal mounting of the bracket 24.,

vllilach of the brackets 24, as hereinbefore stated, extends'transversely of the -open end of the stenciling cylinder and serves to sup-- port a fulcrum bar 30 which passes longitudinally' through the stencilin cylinder,

as indicated-in Figs. 4 and 5. T 'e receptajcle for the ornamenting 'material is supported and positioned by the fulcrum bar 30, and' vcomprises the hangers 31, one at each end of the stenciling cylinder, which' rests upon the fulcrum Ybai-,fand from the bar 30 extend. the bracket portions 32.v Between the bracket Fportions 32is`journaled a' rodor Shaft 33, 4,6A and .7, to which are secured the si e members 34 having their end portions connected byia 'shutter 35 and longitudinal flange 36, thus constituting p a portion ofthe receptacle for'the ornamenting material. The other portion of the re-l ceptacle for the 'ornamenting material is formed by a doctor 37,V Figs. 4, 6 and 7, lagainst which the edge rtion 38 of the shutter normally rests, t e construction so far describedl being such'that the receptacle for the' ornamenting the stenciling cylinder -1s formed of the doctor37, constituting one portion of the receptacle and the arms 34, shutter 35 and flange 36V constituting another member of the receptacle. 'Y

Since the receptacle for the o rnamenting material within-the cylinder is hung upon- .the fulcrum bar 30, hereinbefore described,

Y it follows that the lower edge of .the doctor L' 37l will rest" upon the.. inner `surface 'of the stencilin cylinder andconstitute another support;v orthe'jreceptacle.' Moreover, sincej the material` within the receptacle may be of plastic nature, it-isdesirable thatthe doctor shall be inclined' with res 'to the inner surface of the stencilin 'cy 'nder that such inclinationv ofthe octormay be' adjusted from time 'totime to suit different 'n conditions of the ornamentmlg Vmaterial and' cause it to beforced throng the o Y in tllile stenciling cylinderl onto the 'cloth be; neat. Y,

material within' Inl-the present instance, the doctor 37 is' mounted upon an angleiron 39, Fig. 7,

which is itself secured by bolts such as 40 to a tube 41 extending through the stencillnecyllnder. In the present instance the .tu

to the doctor 3 secured thereto, whereupon the bolts 42 are set up andthe parts remain in adjusted position.

Secured'to the angle iron 39 and also if desired to the pipe 41` is afgude 43 having acurvedsurface 44 on which rests there- '70 41 is constituted as a pipe which may v be utilized for theintroduction of heat for versely curved surface of a supply pipe sup? n portingbed 45. In the present instance the ide 43. is shown as secured tothe angle Viron and pipe 41 bybolts 46. The supply pipe supporti-n bed 45 has a' su portingsurface 47 exten ing longitudinelly through the stenciling cylinder and Vset screws or bolts 48 sex-'veto secure the su sly .pipe supporting bed 45 upon the gul e 4 3. In order that the doctor` and pipe 41 may be adjusted angularly w1tl 1.re spect to the inner surface of the stenciling cylinder, as hereinbefore indicated, without V'disturbing the relation of the supply pipe supporting bed 45 and the stencilln cylinder, the bolts-48 are passed througi -elongated openings 49 in the'guide 43, and when the doctor is to be angularly adjusted the bolts 4,8.are'1oosened to permit the guide 43 to movewith the angle iron relative to the 'su'pzply pipe supporting bed.

g upon the surface^47 of the sup-.-

Ply A`pipe supporting bed 45 is the' su ply pipe 5() whichextends longitudinally o the stenciling cylinder and `through lts open ends, as indicated in Figs. 3 and 5. The

sup ly pipe 50 has one or more openings 51 in its lower surface through which material from the supply p ipe 50 may passed to the rece tacle or the ornamentmg material when e supply pipe 50 is turned upon its longitudinal axis, as will presently be e lained.. v

ounted upon each -end -of the supply Vpipe V50 "is a reservoir 52 for the ornament- 111g material, and each reservoirhas a hub I portion 53 intowhich the end of the pipe V50 extends. vMounted in the hub portion-'531125'.

of the reservoir isa rotaryfvalve54 havinV a handle 55,-Fig. 5by vwhich the materia in the' upper part of thereservoir, as indiff cated'in g. 5, 'may permitted topass Athrough the opening 56 thevalve to .the

VSilpplr Pip@ 50. V i139..

` In order that the ornamenting material in the supply pipe may be discharged into the receptacle beneath, the pi e 50 iS provided at one end with a handle 5 whereby the pipe 50 may be rotated upon its longitudinal axis to bring the openings 51 beyond the curved surface of the supply pipe supporting bed 45, whereupon the material in the supply pipe will ass to the receptacle beneath and be held therein until the shutter and doctor are relatively moved to permit the material, to pass from the receptacle to the inner surface of the stenciling cylinder.

In order to form a passageway between the doctor 37 and the edge 38 of the shutter 35, the shaft 33, Figs. 3 and 5, is provided with a handle 58 whereby the shaft 33 may be rotated and the shutten moved away from the doctor to provide a passage for the ornamenting material.

When the shutter has been moved as described, it is desirable to prevent the ornamenting material from passing through the ends of the opening formed between the shutter and doctor, and to this end the side members 34 of the shutter mechanism have the f end guards 59 which are pivotally connected thereto at 60 and are normally under the iniiuence of a spring 61 tending to hold the guard 59 in its operative position closing the end portion of the passage between the doctor and the edge 38 of the shutter.

As indicated in Fig. 4, the lower edge portion of the doctor normally rests upon the inner surface of the cylinder substantially at the printing point or the place where the ornamenting material is forced by the inclined doctor through the openings in the stenciling cylinder'. It is sometimes desirable to not only vary the inclinationhof the doctor but to vary the position of the receptacle within the cylinder horizontally and vertically in order to vary the position of the acting edge of the doctor on the inside of the cylinder, and to this end the brackets 24 may be adjusted, as hereinbefore described,

either horizontally by the adjusting screws 27 or vertically by the adjusting screws 29.

rI`he cloth or fabric a, on which the ornaments are to be placed may be furnished from a suitable supply, as also may be the back grey b on which the fabric is placed and by which the fabric is fed. In the present instance the fabric or cloth is wound in the form of a roll 62, Fig. 1, and supported by the machine frame, while the back grey is likewise mounted in the form of a roll 63 upon the machine frame. The back grey,` as hereinbefore stated, is wider than the cloth and they are led together from their respective rolls over suitable guides 64, 65 and 66 onto the surface ofthe rubber apron 20 and travel with the apron to the printing point between the stenciling cylinder and the apron beneath. As the stenciling cylinder is rotated by means such as hereinbefore described, the fabric or cloth a has deposited thereon the ornamenting material in accordance with the design of the stenciling cylinder. In the present instance the ornamentations are shown as small beads, but of course the form and character of the ornamentat'ions will be varied in accordance with the desire of the manufacturer. From the printing point the cloth and back grey are drawn by the driving rolls 67 and 68 between which the ornamented cloth and back grey pass, as indicated in Fig. 4. In order that the ornaments on the fabric may not be injured as the cloth passes between the rolls 67 and 68, the rolls are provided with iianges or collars 69, Fig. 5, which engage the exposed side marginal portions of the back grey b and act thereon to draw the back grey and strips of ornamented fabric through the machine. One of the rolls 67 or 68 may be driven from the shaft 15 of the rubber roll by means of a belt or sprocket chain 70, as indicated in Figs. 4 and 5, and the two rolls 67 and 68 are preferably geared together by the gears 71 and 72, as indicated in Figs. 4 and 5, so that they rotate in unison..

i Where the ornamenting material deposited upon the cloth or fabric is a phenol condensation product which becomes practically insoluble and non-,thermoplastic by heat treatment, the back grey and ornamented fabric or cloth a are passedfrom the drawing rolls 67 and 68 after being looped as at 73, Fig. 1, through an opening 74 in thepartition 2 separating the machine proper from the heating chamber.

In the present instance of the invention, the heat chamber has mounted therein the endless chain or carrier 75 provided with the cross supporting rods 76 extending between the chain at each side of the heating chamber. The chains or carriers 75 are passed about the rolls 77 in the heating chamber and pursue an endless path olf travel, being driven from any suitable source of power.

Mounted at the top of the heating chamber is a cloth drawing roll 78 which may be driven as by the sprocket chain 7 9 from the driving shaft 5, as indicated in Fig. 1, to draw or pull the ornamented cloth and back grey and deliver them in loop formation, as indicated at 80, onto the cross bars 76 of the endless carriers 75. To insure the proper formation of the loops 80 of the ornamented cloth and back grey there is a tripping device 81 formed as a roller having enlarged side edge or collar portions, similar to the drawing rolls 67 and 68, to engage the exposed marginal portions of the back grey without injuring the ornamentations on the cloth, and causing the cloth to llll lstenciling cylinder clean and to this end 'provides cleaning-and washing aprons. In the present instance of the invention one of' the cleaning aprons l85, Figs. 1 and4, is drawn from a source of suppl such,for instance, as the'apron roll 88, rom which the apron passes about the guides 87, a

Vportion of thecleaning apron being held against the exterior surface of the stenciling cylinder between two of the guide rolls 87, as indicated in Fig. 4. After passing about the stenciling cylinder and serving to cleanbthe exterior surface thereof, as described, the cleaning apron 85 is passed back to and wound upon the support86, Fig. l.

Mounted upon anarm 89, Fi 1, pivotally supported at 90 on the mac e frame 4 is a stenciling cylinder washing device comprising Ain construction the tank `91 mounted on the-Swingin arm 89 and containing witliin it the gui e roll 92. Mounted upon the end portion of the arm 89 is an apron feed roll 93v which is stepped along 1 during machine operation by a pawl 94 acting through a ratchet 95,:the pawl 94 being given 'its 'actuating movement.by yan eccentric 96 which may be mounted at the'- top portion ofthe machine frame 4 and given its rotating movement by suitable. actuating means, which in the resent instance is shown as a sprocket c ain. The

zpawlf 94 is `under the influenceof a spring 97 which'acts to hold the pawl in its operatijve. position, The tank`91 is preferably mounted on the'arm 89 pivotally, or so as J to swin so that should the arm 89 be drawn upward y to getat the surface. of the stenciling cylinder, the liquid 'in the tank will not be spilled. Passing about the rolls 93, 98 and 99 is a washing apron- 4100, Fig. 4, which dips under the roll l92 in thetank and is fedQ along by the roll 93 and ratchet and pawl movement described.

It is sometimes desirable to clean the washing apron, and to this end the machine frame 4 has extended upwardly therefrom the bracket armsA 101 pivotally supporting at 102 the briish holding arms 103, the lowerV end portions of which carry the cleaning the 'adjacent surface of the washing apron 100.y Mounted on the support 102 1s the Isprocket wheel 105 which may be drivenV by a sprocket chain 106 vfrom the rubber roll l5 or other rotating element, and in order to impart rotative movement to the brush 104, the sprocket 105 has associated therewith another sprocket 107 the brush chain 108 whereof is caused "to rotate the brush and maintain the parts engaged clean and free from dirt.

F rom the construction described with respect to the cleaning mechanism it will be apparent thatshould it be desired to inspect the surface of the stenciling cylinder at any time or to get at it for the purpose of repair or otherwise, the arm 89 carrying the washing element may be turnednpwardly after having disengaged the pawl 94 from the ratchet and turn the brush 104 upwardly.
